Sri Lanka National Cricket Team vs Bangladesh National Cricket Team Match Scorecard: Sri Lanka and Bangladesh will look to renew their rivalry at a new stage when they clash in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 on Saturday, June 8.

Kusal Mendis was their best bet with the bat, scoring 19 runs off 30 ball while the experienced Angelo Mathews managed 16. Anrich Nortje was the chief architect behind that woeful batting performance from Sri Lanka as he took four wickets and Hasaranga and his team will look to put that behind and refocus against Bangladesh.┬аSri Lanka vs Bangladesh, ICC MenтАЩs T20 World Cup 2024 Free Live Streaming Online: How To Watch SL vs BAN Cricket Match Live Telecast on TV?
